<div dir="ltr">Thanks for the input guys. Since I'm fairly new at Myth, just to clarify then what exactly should I do if I don't have an automated process but just pick a recording and want to cut out commercials and transcode 100% lossless? I'd like to do this with past recordings I keep in myth.<br>
<br>I have taken note of the mythcommflag and mythtranscode commands, but for my novice's sake could someone explain the steps I would take? Would I add a job, and if so with which command and which would go first, second, etc.? Thanks a lot for the help!! :)<br>

</div>BTW, Doing this automatically without first examining the cut points<br>
will guarantee that a small percentage of your shows will have missed<br>
content (for me 5% or so) and that a larger percentage of your shows<br>
(20 to 30%) will still have a few commercials in them.<br>
